Abstract :
This paper introduces Metalog, a query/logical system designed to allow reasoning on the Web. Metalog tries to start filling in the so-called people axis, where the Web is tailored for the people, and not just for the machine. Besides allowing the formulation of declarative logical rules, Metalog´s distinctive feature is to lower the entry access level, by employing a Pseudo Natural Language (PNL) interface, which is particularly easy to understand. This allows almost everybody to use Metalog, even without any particular expertize in the field. This capability, together with other advanced solutions that enhance customization and user friendliness, are key components for a wide adoption of intelligent semantic web technologies.
